The House. Grounds and Grove Put In
 Able Management
 Marked changes and improvements have been made at Lighthouse Point. The hotel has been completely overhauled and renovat- ed and the grove trimmed and put in fine order. The house is newly painted and kal- somined, carpeted and furnished, and all the buildings, including billiard room, bowling alley and shooting gallery, have been put in complete order. The place generally has been made to look like new. Accommoda- tions for large numbers can be obtained in the spacious dining room, and no pains will be spared to make the ''shore dinner' most popular one at this resort. A new and sub- stantial 300 foot plank dock, ten feet wide, has been built out from the Point and is neatly arranged for the landing of pleasure boats large and small, and there is five feet of water at the landing at low tide. For regular boarders as we'll as transient guests the place will be found very attractive, not only for it's fresh and neat condition, but for the natural beauty of the spot, the command ing view obtained there of the sea, harbor and the city. the sea bathing facilities and the easy access from the city. The place is now under the able management of Captain A. W. Snow, favorably remembered by pa irons of the old line of New Haven steam boats and by many more from his popular management as a hotel proprietor in New town for number of years past.

A WHOLE TRAIN DERA1LED.

A Narrow Escape From Another Rail- road Horror Yesterday-A New Ha- vener Tells the Story.
 A railroad accident occurred yesterday morning near the scene of the terrible disas- ter at Spuyten Duyvil few years ago. This time there is fortunately no loss of life to be recorded, though the occupants of the train narrowly escaped frightful fate. MT. L. Moulthrop, secretary of the New Haven Man ufacturing company, who was coming home from a trip to Cleveland, Ohio, and arrived here last evening, was on the train, and says:
 The St. Louis express with it's train of mail, baggage, express, smoking car coaches and six sleepers on the Hudson River railroad reached the curve at Spuyten Duyvil exactly on time, at o'clock.
 The first of the sleeping cars was the Meta mora from Chicago, the second was the Trin idad from Buffalo, the Gibraltar from St Louis came third, and these were followed by sleeping cars from Albany, Troy and Mon treal.
 While sweeping around the curve at slack ened speed the fore truck of the Gibraltar the third sleeping car, left the track and cut it's way throug gh the ties in the direction oi the freight railroad, which runs along the Hudson down to Thirtieth street. Its for ward impetus drew the second sleeper, the Trinidad, from the rails, slowed it around and turned it over on its side It stopped between the Gibraltar and the main track, while the Gibraltar stopped within three feet of the river. It was mo- ment of terrible excitement to the passen- gers The side of the Trinidad was torn into pieces as it went crashing sideways along the road.
 There were fifteen passengers in the Trim idad and two of them were still in their berths. The others, with the exception of two or three who had been up for some time before, were in the act of dressing themselves when the car toppled over. All were thrown into indiscriminate heaps and pretty roughly shaken about, as were also the Gibraltar's passengers. Timbers flew and broken glass was scattered all around. Only one passenger was seriously injured. MT. Moulthrop, who was unharmed, assist ed to get him taken to the hospital The injured man said he was knocked out ct the window by being struck by large heavy man who was thrown against him in the concussion.
 Fifteen minutes after the accident hap pened men were at work in relaying the displaced rails and ties.
 About thirty of the passengers were brought down in the coach and engine, and the rest came down by the train from Dobbs Ferry.
 With the exception of the wrecking of the Trinidad and the tearing away of the front of the Gibraltar, the injury to the other cars is comparatively slight, and about $12,OOO will cover the entire damages.

The Great Moral show With Its Im. mense Aggregation of Attractions The Route of the General Parade.
 There will be temporary lull in the Mon ument day excitement for the next twenty four hours in view of the advent of the "Great Moral Show" The whole affair is expected to arrive from Hartford at an early hour this morning and pitch it's huge tents upon the vacant grounds on Kimberly ave nue. The old base ball ground on Howard avenue, SO long the resort of the circus, is no longer available by reason of the steady march of improvement in that direction. Mr. Barnum, however, says that he would be obliged to make change anyway, as the show has steadily increased in size, necessi |, tating more spacious ground for the canvas. But the location makes little or no differ- ence with the crowds. Men, women and children throng the big pavilions and learn lessons of wisdom from the wonders therein. Other thousands rush for the circus tent to admire the athletes, gaze in astonishment at the fearless riders and cheer Justify at the daring feats upon the trapeze. Still others rush into the great circle to recover lost child, who, when the band strikes up, eVad- ed the grasp of the parent and disappeared W1CD LnS cEOWO 1G lahoS IiAoAA hours to find the boy, and by that time the circus is over. Afternoon is the best time for women and children who go alone, as they see precisely the same performance and avoid the crowds in the evening. As usual reserved seats will be on sale at Loomis' Temple of Music, but the perfect system now adopted about the ticket wagon and main entrance gives women and children but little trouble in getting tickets. The following is the route of parade:
 The parade will leave the show grounds at o'clock and take the following route: Kimberly to Congress avenue, to Church street, to Chapel to Wooster Place, to Greene street. to Olive to Grand avenue to Elm street, to Church, to Chapel, to York, to Cedar, to Washington, ts Dewitt, to show grounds.
 The following communication from the Rev. J. c. Collins was sent to Manager Hutchinson this morning:
 MT. J. L. Hutchinson, manager of the Barnum and London show:
 Dear sir: understand that the Barnum and Lon don show with the large number of employees con- nected with it will remain over the Sabbath in our beautiful city. It has occurred to me that these feel perfectly free to avail themselves of church and religious privileges, at any rate they might find it pleasant and take it kindly to be remembered in aChristian way by special invitation to some place of worship. therefore take pleasure in extending to them, many of them as may find it con venient through you cordial invitation to attend Sunday night the union religious services of the Gospel Union in English Hall, corner Court and State streets.
 wish also to say that a cordial vel will be given them to any of our city churches

rhe Remarkable Cures

Which have been effected by Hoods Sarsa parilla are sufficient proof that this medicine does possess peculiar curative power. In the saverest cases of scrofula or salt rheum, when other preparations had been powerless, the nae of Hoods Sarsapsrilla has brought about fhe happiest results. The case of Miss Sarah C. whittier of Lowell, Mass, who suffered terribly from scrofulous sores; that of Chas. Al Roberts of East Wilson, N. Y., who had thirteen abscesses on his face and neck; that hin diaease and scrofula 50 bad that physi- clans said he could not recover, are few of fhe many instances in which wonderful cures were effected by this medicine.
